Why do Americans have such a bad reputation?
I am a British Pakistani, and with other British Pakistani guys I went over to the states a few months ago.
We went to LA, Vegas, Yosemite National Park, Grand Canyon National Park, Salt Lake City, Yellowstone National Park, travelled about 2000 miles in total. Everywhere we went Americans were so friendly! Every club or restaurant or bar, people were so kind hearted to us.
People may say “well you only went to the “liberal” areas”. Not the case, we went right into the heart of Montana, and watched rodeos, people were the same.
If we got lost at any time, some people were willing to give us their maps with detailed directions, this sort of stuff would never happen in the UK.
We didn’t encounter racism anywhere and people always went out of their way to be as friendly as possible, I had honestly thought people would call us terrorists etc. It really left a profound impression on us.
Since then I have been left wondering, why do Americans have such a bad reputation?
It;s entirely down to their foreign policy.Nothing to do with the man/woman on the street.People are people the world over.I’m well travelled and for the most part we’re all the same.If we can’t do someone a good turn we won’t do them a bad one and that holds true of your average American.Just like anywhere else.
